Compressed Ace Winzip 9.x Concise Tutorial

Installation

[This site is original] Winzip is a veteran file compression software, he and Windows Explorer integrated drag and drop. Support a variety of formats, including ZIP, CAB, TAB, GZIP, etc., is a very powerful and easy to use a compression utility. The latest version is 9.0. Considering the convenience of everyone, we use WinZip v9.0 Build 6028 Chinese version as an example to illustrate the use of this software.

Step1: Software Installation

After double-clicking setup.exe, the following figure appears:

Figure 1 Installation Path Settings
After the installation, the software is installed. Then the following picture appears:

Figure 2 Install WinZip
After this:

Figure 3 Setting WinZip
This is necessary before using winzip Settings, basically use the default settings, it is recommended to use the "start with winzip standard" in the next step, so that the function is more powerful.

After setting up, you can start using winzip.
Compression

Step2: Quickly compress files

Since WinZip supports the right mouse button shortcut menu function, almost all operations can be done in the right button. Therefore, when compressing a file, just right-click on the file or folder to be compressed in the Explorer, and then pop up a shortcut menu (below). Here, WinZip provides a variety of compression methods, and select "Add to < The file name >.zip" command, WinZip can quickly create a ZIP archive of the file to be compressed in the current directory. 4 starts embodiment

Step3: file decompression

add files to decompress, WinZip also provides The simple method: in the system resource, use the right mouse button to click the zip file, and include a variety of decompression methods in the system right-click menu (above), where "unzip to" means custom decompressed file storage. The path and file name, "Unzip to here" means to release the compressed package file to the current path, "Unzip the file to...\\" means to create the same folder with the same name as the compressed package in the current path, and then expand the compressed package file. Going to this path, "Unzip to Folder" means to release the zip file to the most recently accessed folder.

WinZip provides a decompression function for some files in the compressed package. When using it, double-click the compressed package where the file needs to be extracted, and then pop up the WinZip main interface.

In this interface, select the file or folder to be decompressed. If you want to decompress multiple files or folders at once, click Release ” button, in the pop-up “release” dialog box, select the path of the file decompression and click “OK” to decompress (below).

Step4: Winzip9.0 changes and updates

1: Winzip does not change much on the interface, this is to ensure the software interface Stability and ease of use, just add a column of shortcut menu bar on the window

2: Improved compression. In this new version, a new compression method has been introduced, which is what we see as "maximum (enhanced compression)" (below). This improved compression algorithm can further increase the compression ratio.

3: A more secure encryption algorithm. WinZip 9.0 supports the AES encryption standard, which is an industry standard 128 to 256-bit encryption function. Its super encryption function uses Rijndael code encryption, which is the AES algorithm mentioned earlier. Tip: AES is the abbreviation of The Advanced Encryption Standard in English. It is the most secure encryption algorithm approved in recent years and has been widely used in government, trade secrets and personal privacy. WinZip 9.0 also provides a better encryption code algorithm than the earlier WinZip encryption algorithm, Winzip2.0 encryption. The encryption operation is more user-friendly, and the existing file package can be encrypted directly by the "encryption" in the tool bar.

Figure 11 Encryption
The encryption method contains "Zip2.0", " The 128bit AES" and "256bit ASE" modes can be selected according to different encryption requirements.

4: Better compression and compatibility. WinZip 9.0 supports an "enhanced compression" compression method that allows less compression time and more space savings. It supports the 64-bit extended ZIP format, which allows you to store all the software you need to compress without worrying about the size of the Zip file. The format size limit depends on the memory. The old version supports up to 65,536 files and 4GB of capacity, while 64 The bit-extended Zip format has been tested by multiple parties and has completely removed the limitations of this type. You can add various types of files to the Zip package yourself without worrying about the target file size. The number of target files and file size are limited by WinZip. Of course, WinZip 9.0 is still fully compatible with the original Zip packet format. The 64-bit extended Zip packet format will only be applied after the target file exceeds the old format system support range.

5: Inadequacies. The format supported by Winzip9.0 is not very much at present, and some supported formats are still very uncommon. For RAR format, it is not currently supported. It is not supported by the common format such as ISO. It cannot be said that it is a big regret. . I hope that there will be a qualitative change in future versions.
